Default Advice for son-in-law USAF to Guard?

I have a early 20's son-in-law that is active duty ASAF. E-3 maybe E-4 crew chief on C-130 at Hurlbert Fiefd, FL. I believe he has been in about 1.5 years. I have heard that it is possible to transfer to the guard from active duty AF. Does anyone know if this is true? Is it a simple thing? He wants to fly eventually, and is getting his PPL at a military club at Eglin AFB. He feels the AF is not taking him in the direction he wants to go and thinks a guard unit would be more his style. There is a guard unit in Boise, Idaho that he would like to consider but where does he start? Is he stuck with his 4 remaining years where he is or are there realistic options in the guard. Thanks for any specific info.
